Reflection
Although at first I found that using voicethread was very complicated, I eventually learned how to work it. My peers were very helpful. Practicing and clicking around were also very helpful because eventually I got the hang of it. Wiki was neat to use because it gave me a change to submit my work for my teacher, but also for my peers to review and look at. I believe that with guidance and lots and lots of practice, voicethread and wiki would both be awesome to use in my classroom one day because it is a different way to use technology and write stories. Students would be interested and wanting to learn to do this, even if writing isn't their strong suit. Wiki could give my students a chance to complete their work, but also view their peers. This could help their grades by noticing if they forgot anything, which they then could go back and edit their work inside of wiki. I believe voicethread and wiki could be very beneficial to my future classroom.
